Wow! That's fantastic. I've only heard itty bits about this movie (That Nathan's in it, that it's called "Waitress". That's about it.) And of course it's not playing anywhere near me. But, if I get a chance to see it, I definitely will!

I hope so. Because, if it comes here, I'll definitely see it!

I've seen previews and it does look like a cute movie.

I haven't seen a movie in ages! I told Alice we had to see something this weekend, so we're going to try and see Shrek the third, and Pirates.

I'm skipping ShrekIII and Spiderman3 but I'll be watching Pirates soon, hopefully this weekend... I'm very excited about that one (I hope it is good!)!

But you should definitely put Waitress on your list, it is very funny...and is interesting too, it has stuff to say along with the humor.

I'll put it on my list. I have to check if its playing here, I'm sure it is, I just need to see what theater it might be playing at.

I'll bet it is in Miami by now, it is only in 116 theaters at the moment, but I think most big cities have it by now....
